?
Musta been a question I had a long time ago... It's all taken care of now, and it wasn't the tach signal.

Thanks though!

Any luck with the motor or at least a tracking number today?

 

[Andrew]

Haven't called him today, but I will on my lunchbreak.
Update later today(if he answers my call)

 

[Andrew]

KMS actually shipped it!
Plus he's sending me a stage 2 clutch for free(don't think he's doing it on purpose either! I think he forgot that I didnt want it. lol score!)

Should be here late this week or early next (don't know much about the shipping company he's using, but I should be getting some tracking #'s from him today or tomorrow

yeah about time. Right now my other crx is in his shop as well. It looks like we'll be doing both swaps at the same time. I planned for taking my motor out fri. and finishing sun. then Andrew get the call that his motor has been shipped!

this will be interesting 2 swaps, 1 place and hopefully 4 people to help.

 

[Andrew]

LS/V into your red car, my built z6 into mine, and a bunch of peeps out there to help. should be pretty fun!
(of course I'll be photopicturing the swaps)

 

[Andrew]

Update...

I misunderstood KMS, I thought he said they're shipping the motor Tuesday, but infact they sent me a free Stage 1 clutch instead.
Motor shipped out today(thursday), so it should be here early next week.

And a few days ago I cleaned up some stuff:

This car is gonna be so clean.... I don't think we'll even get dirty at all with the swap.

 

[eg6sir]

thats the way to do it..

 

[Seany-izzle]

nice, good luck keeping it that clean.

 

[Andrew]

nice, good luck keeping it that clean.
